echo $v[0]; for aaa

the $e=explode(".",$string); for good .

but the echo $v[0]; dispalys only aaa

any advise ?

[Ducani]

use

echo ereg_replace(".jpg","",$v[$i])

where $i= the values that you are looping through

in your loop and that whould work fine.

There's no need in this case to explode using _ , we can just use the . as our explode symbol, as long as the filename (aaa_bbb part) is never going to contain a .

$parts=explode(".",$string)

The two variables are then $parts[0] - contains aaa_bbb etc
and $parts[1] - contains .jpg
